Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- Optional: a pinch of cinnamon for added flavor
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon if using. Set aside.
- Beat softened butter and brown sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, fully incorporating each, then mix in vanilla extract.
- Gradually add dry ingredients alternating with milk, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in the sliced peaches until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use ripe, fragrant peaches for the best flavor.
- If using frozen or canned peaches, drain excess syrup to prevent a soggy cake.
- Adjust baking time according to your oven to ensure moistness.
- Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on top before baking for extra flavor.
